You are invited to the launch of Dazed by Dieback!

This comic book by ecologist, artist and musician — Dr David Curtis, explores the causes of rural dieback and the solutions through ecological restoration and revegetation.

The comic and exhibition of the original artworks will be launched by acclaimed New England artist Angus Nivison at the Armidale Tree Group, Michael O’Keefe Woodland Education Centre in 80 Mann Street, Friday 3 February at 6pm.

Dazed by Dieback tells the story of New England Dieback and the efforts of scientists and farmers to reverse it. It is a humorous tale charting the explorations of its unlikely heroes Barry, Fay and Warren Streuth, as they uncover the causes of dieback and what can be done to reverse it. Whilst set in the New England, it has relevance to all agricultural regions of Australia where rural dieback is prevalent.
